Description
Remastered 2LP reissue of Stereolab's 1993 album Transient Random-Noise Bursts With Announcements. This was "The Groop's" second album of “marxist background music”, krautrock-inspired indie pop with a rock edge. “Jenny Ondioline” was the (18 minute!) lead single and a charmingly meandering mission statement, wall-of-sound guitar freakouts held at bay by rigid motorik drums. “I’m Going Out Of My Way” is built around a claustrophobic organ riff that nearly swallows Lætitia Sadier’s restrained vocal. “Golden Bell” is one of the headier cuts, a reverberating bass line leading a parade of skronking guitars. This official 2025 Duophonic reissue comes pressed on double vinyl with a protective PVC outer sleeve and printed inner sleeves. Recommended.
